Nice shots of the beast there!

Shot 37422 myself at Clapham Junction on Friday. How nice it was to see it again after...over 2.5 years!

My shots are being uploaded still at the mo, taking a while...

Blimey, you actually shot 37422? Surprised the police aren't onto you ;).

6O41 is the Westbury to Eastleigh. 6V27 is the Eastleigh to Hinskey, just to clear any confusion.

I do believe freight stops there for a min or two, so maybe a slightly longer shutter could of been used, very nice photo though!

Todays Didcot to Bescot working Not e the word TODAY please:-

66143 was placed in front of 37422 at around 18.15hrs with the 37 moving as
necessary under its' own power.
The train finally left Didcot, northbound, at 1832hrs, the 66 making as much
smoke as 37422 did when moving under its' own power during the loco swop.

Thanks to a friend on the scene for this information.
